Around 1987 Joe DiMaggio was doing a promotion for Bowery Savings Bank in Brooklyn and I walked over for an autograph and to my great surprise I was the only one there, so I was able to engage him for a couple of minutes in conversation. I asked him why he was on so few post-war baseball cards, in particular why he was never on a card issued by Bowman. He said he thought he was, and I assumed he confused it with his 49 Leaf card. That was pretty much it, he was polite though a bit aloof. |
